I'm guessing you're too young to remember the fuel shortage circa 2000 [?]. Queues taking up entire streets and beyond for petrol stations, fights on the forecourts, people filling anything that held liquid. Madness. |  |

We had a commercial fuel line break in Phoenix in 2005. Commercial meaning for fleet vehicles, semi's, trucks etc... but our lovely media, made it out to be consumer gas with cars and caused panic buying and gas shortages and gouging across the region. Morons. |  |

Wasn’t that caused by some truckers going slow and blockading as well? Remember it well but had completely forgotten about it until I saw your reply. |  | |  | Login to get fewer ads

I remember my parents having to queue for fuel during the oil crisis of 1973-4. |  |

The UK panic could have been stopped overnight by petrol stations requiring a minimum charge of £50 - and ensuring that petrol could only be put into vehicle tanks - or as the US dimwits pronounce it vee hickuls |  | |  |
